Baby Girl Number 4. Eleanor's middle names

[itmsylifeitsnowornever]

I'm pregnant with our 4th daughter. We have chosen Eleanor as the first name. She will have 2 middle names like her sisters. The first middle name will be a tree name and the second related to water, as we have done with our 3 older daughters.

The tree names we can't decide between are Cedar, Maple and Willow. The water names are Harbour and Marina. I'm not so keen on Cedar but DH really likes it. So the combinations we have are as follows. We have vetoes "Maple Marina" because we dislike the same initials

Eleanor Cedar Harbour
Eleanor Cedar Marina
Eleanor Maple Harbour
Eleanor Willow Harbour
Eleanor Willow Marina

Marina is pretty as a name but not as a water feature!

Hazel for the tree? Or Ivy?!

I'd say Lake at a push but maybe break the pattern?!

I will be the odd one out, I quite like Harbour for a middle name.

I’ve lived next to one my whole life and so it’s something memorable for me. Perhaps you’re similar? I wouldn’t use it as a first name, but middle as you’re suggesting is fine to me.

I fully accept that I’m very quirky when it comes to names though.

What about Linden Marina..Linden a type of tree and a unisex name like the president lydon b Johnson.

Willow Marina is the best - Cedar and Harbour are awful, and especially considering your other childrens' names - she will really feel she drew the short straw. Plus as others have said, both Harbour and Marina are not really 'about' water! They're buildings. Probably no coincidence that they sound harder, harsher and uglier.

Willow Ocean, Willow Rain, Willow Aqua, Willow Salacia (Roman goddess of the sea).
